Questions

How big is the GPR RegisterArray PCB?

It measures 77.2 × 53.3 mm and has 4 copper layers, 4.69 mm thick.

What parts does the GPR RegisterArray use?

16 parts, built around the 74HC245D, 74HC193D, 74HC283P-E and 74HC21D. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the GPR RegisterArray KiCad files?

From the Trilobyte-CPU/8-bit-computer repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PCBs/99_IN PROGRESS/IO-FIFO/GPR-RegisterArray/GPR-RegisterArray.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the GPR RegisterArray design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Trilobyte-CPU before reusing the design.
